 Re: Ligature for soloists?

Dropping my earlier snark for a minute, I think most players here would agree that of all the components of a clarinet system the ligature has the smallest influence in how the system sounds regardless of who is playing on it. And, of course, the player him- or herself is the most influential part of the system.

The point is that, long before a player's focus turns to his ligature as a sound and response influencer, he or she needs to have sorted out all the rest of it, including how he/she produces and maintains the air column, how the reeds he chooses react with the air column, how the mouthpiece enables the reed to react and how the instrument resonates and projects the sound into the air. And all of those things together must already be in place to produce what the OP is looking for before the ligature can add anything, if indeed anything, meaningful.

In this respect, no ligature is capable on its own and in isolation of "producing" any particular kind of sound at all. It can only add a small influence if everything else supports the same concept.
